It is narrated from Hazrat Abu Huraira (may Allah be pleased with him) that the Noble Prophet (peace and blessings be upon him) said in the explanation of "If only I had strength with you..." that Prophet Lut (peace be upon him) was seeking the support of a strong pillar. After him, whichever prophet Allah sent, He made them from among the wealthy people of their nation.
